Short answer: yes, psilocybin can still have subjective effects while taking diazepam, but they are often muted. Many people report less intensity, less emotional release, and fewer insights when a benzodiazepine is present. Because diazepam can dampen the experience and is sometimes used to reduce it, some choose to taper beforehand to allow a fuller […]
FAQ
Does diazepam reduce psilocybin effects, and for how long?
Diazepam can blunt psilocybin effects for many people, though responses vary. Some notice little change, many report fewer visuals and less emotional depth, and a smaller group feels strongly muted effects. How long this dampening lasts can extend beyond the calming period. Because diazepam and its active metabolite linger, reductions can persist for days. After […]
Is a psychotherapist necessary for psychedelic therapy?
A psychotherapist is not universally required for psychedelic work; it depends on your legal setting and your goals. In regulated clinical programs and for any future reimbursement, a licensed psychotherapist with specific psychedelic training is typically expected. Policies differ by country and over time, and I cannot verify the current status in the Netherlands. Outside […]
Is a psychotherapist necessary for psychedelic therapy?

Which is better for microdosing, LSD or truffles?
If your goal is precise, repeatable microdoses, LSD is usually easier to work with than truffles. Dosing can be made very consistent with blotter cuts or volumetric dosing, so small adjustments are straightforward. Truffles are less predictable. Active content varies by batch and water weight, and psilocybin tolerance rises quickly, so sub-perceptual doses may miss […]
Is LSD or truffles better for microdosing?
There is no universal “better,” but many people report that LSD variants are easier to microdose consistently because the potency is more predictable. I cannot verify effects, yet dosing precision is the main advantage users cite for LSD. Truffles can vary in strength and moisture by batch, which makes sub‑perceptual doses less reliable. Some users […]
How was your psilocybin therapy session with Gijs and Mascha?
My psilocybin session with Gijs and Mascha was excellent. They were calm, kind, and unobtrusive, which made me feel safe and comfortable throughout. The structure worked well: an introductory call a week before to meet and set intentions, which eased most of my nerves and set clear expectations. During the two-day intensive we settled in, […]
What makes Mascha and Gijs’s retreat feel safe, supportive, and well-organized?
A safe, supportive feel comes from a consistent, caring environment and clear boundaries. The facilitators check in with each person and tailor their support so participants feel seen and secure. Preparation exercises before the main session set intentions, clarify guidelines, and build trust. This structure reduces uncertainty and helps everyone feel grounded. During the session, […]
